different role using different home page

[arden]

Hi,
I want to different role has different homepage.
When a user logins successfully, it will use defaultTargetUrl as homepage.
<property name="defaultTargetUrl" value="/home.spring" />
.....
<prop key="/home.spring">homeController</prop>
...
I will add some logic in homeController to check role, then forward to different homepage.

Is it a good way to support this requirement?

Thanks a lot.
Arden

Thanks

You can lookup the Authentication details using SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthenticati on(). All you need to do then is apply your check.

Which function I could get role information?

public interface Authentication
extends Principal, Serializable
{

public abstract GrantedAuthority[] getAuthorities();

public abstract Object getCredentials();

public abstract Object getDetails();

public abstract Object getPrincipal();

public abstract boolean isAuthenticated();

public abstract void setAuthenticated(boolean flag)
throws IllegalArgumentException;
}

public abstract GrantedAuthority[] getAuthorities();

this one may help

public abstract GrantedAuthority[] getAuthorities();

Yes indeed, that's the one I was thinking of.

Not a problem, glad the information was useful. Did you get all of this working then?

after I check role name in my homeController, I try to forward to different controller, but I do not know how to do it.
Now, in my homeController, I could only return different view.
